Description: Perfect is virtual reality escapism at its purest. Leave behind the daily grind and slip away to beautiful and relaxing locations, made possible through VR. Visit several stunning and interactive destinations, from sun-drenched beaches and peaceful mountains to the spectacular northern lights. Instantly accessible yet endlessly captivating, Perfect is the ideal companion to show off your PlayStation VR.

Review: If there is one single thing VR is good at, it’s being able to take you away from it all. All the stress, all the worries, when you need to get away from it all, VR is always ready to do just that. But sometimes you don’t want to play a game, you just need some “You Time” and Perfect is the app that offers just that. From the moment you start the game there is a lady with a very soothing voice telling you how relaxing everything is going to be. But is she telling the truth?

Featuring 3 different locations, each one with a day and night version. You can choose from Snow, Beach and Wilderness scenes, then within each one, you can stand there and enjoy the view, interact with things like the radio, snowballs or rocks and or you can sit down and self-meditate. This app gives you the tools to unwind your mind and feel free, but unless you are willing to use them this app might seem a bit pointless as you are not free to move around (other than to the pre-set teleport locations) or interact with whatever you want.

So is Perfect really perfect? Well…no. But it is indeed relaxing and very peaceful. But it isn’t quite as beautiful looking as I might have liked. This isn’t down to the PSVR’s graphics, it is just the way the game was made. But it is good enough and it allows you to unwind and take you away from the stresses and worries of daily life and that makes it good value for money as well. But it only offers value for money if you use it to unwind, when you need to! If you only play it once it won’t. So buy it and make sure whenever you are feeling the daily pinch get a little too much, boot this app up and get your money’s worth.
